Two woman, Anita Holzberg and Ann Wainwright met over the internet with Bill Costley,
their common friend, whose wife Carolin had been Ann's good friend. Starting in
June '09, Anita sent a Cupcake poem to Ann's website cakecakecake, after seeing
the photo of cupcakes. The poem was about her grandson's first birthday party. Ann
liked that and it was the start of a wonderful exchange of poems from Anita to Ann and
Ann with color, photos, and lay-out savvy, presented them to the blog. Now, in 2010,
the two women so alike in spirit and interests, have started BetweenFriends, a new blog
site where they can combine ideas about their worlds. Ann lives in Northern UK
(Teesside). Anita lives in Northern California, Sunnyvale, (Silicon Valley where all the
computers are.) We share our lives on this blog and hope you will comment and share
yours too, dear readers and enjoy the "ride".

Poem - by Anita

the leaves of fall are starting to turn
         my heart turns inward
             the fluttering of the wind 
                   hears my song
              the day before the day
                      greets me coming and going
                                  at a pace
                           that is unnatural to the universe
                                soon I will slow down
                                          to feel the rain on my shoulders
                                                to smell the sea=salt
                                                    to echo with the river
                                                       time the gaunt executioner
                                                               Now.
